Monday Movie: Sugar

The last baseball movie that came out was 'The Final Season' in 2007. It came and went faster than a dog chasing a cat. Now a new one has come out and it's called 'Sugar.' For those of you who are unfamiliar with the film, it tells the story of a Dominican baseball player who is called to join the Minor Leagues in America. It's is supposedly a remarkable movie, being described as 'a compelling baseball drama.' Ty Burr of the Boston Globe gives a wonderful review of the movie. 'Sugar' is directed by Ryan Fleck and Anna Boden, both of whom also brought us the wonderful 'Half Nelson.' I hope to see the movie before too long. Despite its acclaim, it's opening with a limited release, making it not too accessible for audiences. The best I can offer is the trailer for the movie.
